I had a decent time at this skatepark lots of variety. If you're a tranny skater this park is great, my only complaint not enough rails.

This park has potential, but the failed upkeep of the park makes the transitions slightly sketchy…read more However, the sketchiness plays a role in SF's skate scene. 3/10 the bowl looked nothing like the photos

Saturday was the grand opening celebration for this new skatepark, on the south corner of Balboa…read morePark, and facing the northern side of Balboa BART station. It's been open to the public for awhile. http://s3-media3.ak.yelpcdn.com/bphoto/75pWL8uvmpC827yM7T7cqg/l.jpg The entire renovation of Balboa Park is really beautiful. Some people have the misconception that skate board parks attract the wrong type of crowd. Skate boarders are not biker gangs, just regular kids. Also, it's safer to have an enclosed space for kids to practice new skating skills, instead of them grinding the sidewalks and damaging handrails on public streets. I hope that vandals don't start tagging this park the way they did Potrero del Sol Skatepark. That other place is all made of concrete, so the graffiti can be painted over or sandblasted. This new skatepark's bowl and ramps are made of wood, so any graffiti would ruin it, and be more costly to fix (replace). http://s3-media3.ak.yelpcdn.com/bphoto/yy-ehCvytzySVFlK1tJV5A/l.jpg But I also wonder how long the wood surfaces will last after a few rainy seasons. Here's a cool video of people skating on opening day: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vLOboz1jHa8 Similar future city projects in progress: - Duboce Street Skatepark (aka. Central Freeway skatepark) - Waller Street Skatepark (in the Haight Ashbury district)

This "skatepark" is easily 6 stars except for the overabundance of razor scooter riders that polute…read morethis park a bit like a maggot infestation. They travel in packs with seemingly no regard for skaters taking whatever line they like without looking first. A lot of this blame should go to the parents that drop the kids off unattended and do whatever they do while they wreak havoc without any guidance... So -2 stars from a 6 star rating leaves this park at 4 stars for me. The variety of terrain and the awesome craftsmanship in the concrete is truly bad-ass. The mini bowl is about 3 to 4 feet deep and super addicting. It's a kidney shape with metal coping with smooth lines making it fun and endlessly carveable. The big bowl is 8 feet deep and clover shaped. It has a roll in hip in the center with almost all metal coping with exception to the 2 foot tombstone extension that has pool coping. Being almost 50 years old I don't get any where near that though ;) I do however carve the bleep out of that bowl and really appreciate the epicly smooth concrete. The street course blends into an oval bowl with coping varying from 5 to 8 feet with about half the bowl being a free roll in. There are some stairs and a few steps with rails as well as a few 1/4 pipe features surrounding this section. Beyond all that there is a micro bowl that's about 2 foot deep and some metal rails around the edges of the park. 20k square feet of bliss that is partially ruined by the razor daycare aspect but still totally worth checking out. I love this park and I'm stoked that it is in my home town. Razors were initially not allowed at this park. The parents of the razor kids stepped up at a town meeting and got that rule overturned. It would be great if they stepped up and spent some time with their kids educating them about the park etiquette instead of treating this like a daycare where they can just dump their kids off.

Wow a kids dream of a skatepark. Can't wait to come back. Nice clean bowls, spacious with bumps and…read moreareas to kick in speed and trick areas. Surrounding the park are 6.5' iron fence Skateboards, inline skates and scooters only. No BMX. No pets allowed. Open sunup to sunset Helmets and pads required but only my kid and another skater were wearing helmets. A BMXr arrived and no problems lots of room We arrived around 7pm on June 18th so there was lots of daylight left. My kid made friends with another skater as they taught each other some skills Plenty of parking. The lot is also shared with dog park and soccer fields. There is a lot on the other side of the skatepark as well near the Scotts Valley Recreation No food or drink allowed in park but you could wheel up an ice cooler next to one of several benches outside of the skate gate and even a small bleacher. Water faucet also there. This park is where the old Scotts Valley SkyView airport was located. Next to soccer fields, and a splendid dog park

Best when you roll in with your friends…read more I have a strong love/hate relationship with this rink for many reasons (in the short 5 months I've started roller skating). I'll start with the negative; With any public place, you really have to watch out for yourself and your safety. I've gotten physically shoved by one of the older white men who felt like he owned the rink. There are times where you have sketchy people who don't skate and are eying your valuables or may be harassing people. There are some older folks you may need to watch out for, as they are extremely territorial and not friendly to beginners and new skaters. I will say that it is only a tiny percentage of the folks that skate here. On the positive side; It's generally pretty welcoming. If someone is working on something cool that you're interested in and you ask, some people are pretty cool with showing you the ropes and love working on it with you! I've made so many good friends just showing up and working on my own moves and people chatting me up. In general, you just gotta show up and assess the vibe, as it really changes depending on who's skating there. Generally I'd advise going on: Tuesdays and Fridays anytime from 4pm - 10pm (solid group of skaters who watch out for each other and bring lights and music when it gets dark) Saturdays and Sundays anytime from 12pm - 6pm (A lot busier and crowded. Your experience may vary depending on who you know and feel comfortable skating with on the weekend). I typically always go with friends for safety.
